anything? our big coverage on election night of fox business. every single one. no matter how long it goes. i predict 5:00 in the morning. pancakesbl.eu >>n and the government back to green companies went bust. as the stopping executives from looking for more green. guess w. they might get them. upton said "the willis report." hi, eveyone. i'm tracy byrnes. thank you for joining us. gerri willis has the night off. concerns over the health of our

nation's economy and doubling fiscal cliff. the headlineein today' financial times read you as third quarter results raise fresh economic fears. shares of ompaniesarnf a global demand. the dow jones industrial average plummeting 2% over the past week, the worst drop since june. commodities taking a hit. goldalling elow $1,700 an ounce. the price of oil has dropped almost 7 percentsince last week. of course, the fed. today saidit will leave interest ratesnchanged and will continue qe3, pumping money or air, wherever you want to college, into the economy. joining us on what he makes all this harvard economist jeff myers. thank you for beg here they did basically change nothing in the fed report today it except for two things. change in language in the inflation. they said that the inflation has cked up because of energy prices and the one that the global markets pose some downside risk.

what do you make of all that? >> i think on the ination they also tried to emphasizethat core inflati has no picked up yet. they don't seem be particularly worried about inflation yet. that is one reason why they think that they should be continuing the economy and why there is not much sk to keeping interest rates low. on t global demand, that is clearly an issue. u.s. companies have earnings down, as you just mentioned. europe is clearly in recession. the prospects are is probably going to get worse for three, six months, a year. that affects the demand for u.s. goods and services which will also contribute to a slow-growth. continued slow growth. tracy: does that make a case for the qe basically ivented the? in a statement they said even when the economy turns around they will continue to keep buying ssets. >> you know, in the standard model the keynesian framework, as long as you're not seeing inflation pick up, as long as you see employment above what is regarded as full empoyment,

something like 6 prcent, yes, there is a standard argument for why you should continue to use monery policy to try to improve the economy. what we don't really know because we don't have great experience is whether at the point that we have gotten to where we are pumping so much money so fast into the ecoomy over an extended time print, whether there are additiol risks that at some point expectatn of inflatiowill get out of control or the fed abily to undo its monetary stimulus will be diffcult or constrained by political factors. and so we are not. it might be quite risky. tracy: we have heard from numerous companies. all they do is complain about uncertainty. ups, dow chemical, xerox. rom the ceo, she says xerox has been hit by widespread economic uncertainty. especially in the u.s. that is global, but that is political uncertainty as well. our companies can figure out a way to go forward until someone makes a decision. >> i think that is right.

i don't think the fed is the main reason for the uncertainty. it is pbably contributing to some degree, but it is the fiscal issues that most people are aware that under current projections are debt is getting bigger and bigger to a point that is not sustainable. there is no political agreement on whether we should raise taxes or cut spending, such as medicare or defense in order to try to dea with that, and so there is huge uncertainty. peop also cing something that they may be too certain, the notion that taxes ar going to go up which will discourage things. tracy: the fiscal cliff hitting home. we are seeing n analyst's report, company reports. everyone talking about this fiscal clff. yet the president at one point said he has no problem seein as go over it. what happens if we actually do get to that point where we are, you know, jumping over it like thelma and loue? >> there are two sides to the fiscal cliff. tax hikes and spending cuts. my judgment is the spending cuts are mainly a good thing.

the u.s. is spending too much money and a lot of the we are spending it on his whistle. so most of the spending cuts i would be perfectly happy with an adult think that they will do much to slow dn the economy. tax hikes are a different story. clearly terrible idea. to some extent we may already be seen asa tax. the current slow-growth is partially anticipation, so we are not necessarily going to be falling off a cliff on january january 1. we are already sort of going down that the slowly because of the anticipatn of those tax hikes. tracy: and you know what, nine times out o ten they make things retroactive anyway, so if we fall off the cliff will bounce right back over to the other side come january. thank you for your insights. >> my pleasure. thank you. tracy: it is not just economic poli. newly released -mails showing the white house and the state department knew a terrorist affiliated group claimed responsibility for the libyan attack that killed four americans, including a u.s.

ambassador. leaving the obama administration totally n defense. for more on this john bolton, former united nations ambassador and fox news contributor with us now. i'm so glad you're with us because this is getting complicated. you know, at first they said it was not an act of terror, and then apparently it seems that they knew it was all along. where are we on this? >> i think these e-mails are very significant. my sense is just the few that have become public by the tip of the iceberg. at one level they confirm what we already knew which is in real time because of cellphone communications from diplomatic security personnel at the council in benghazi,it was clr this is not a demonstration that had gotten a little bit out of hand. this was an armed attack undoubtedly by terrorists at are quite common in eastern libya and benghazi specifically. what is significant about these e-mails, i think, is tat they make it unmistakably clear that

at the highest levels in the white house, the state department, the defense department, the intelligence community, people knew what was going on in real time, and it was only late afternoon, early eveng washingto ttime. obviously six or seven hors later in libya, but this was during the working day. the notion that somehow it was unclear what was happening is just not sustainable. tracy: yet secretary henry clinton downplayed it. we had susan rice on air talking to jay carney bsically saying, again, this was not -- this was all because of a video. why are they hiding ths? there is a terrorist attack. if there is say it. >> well, i think they wer trying to avoid the implication that the administration's narrative about the war and terror was just completely wrong. the demonstration saying the war and terr is over. defeated. the arab spring is going to bring democracy in libya, and

this tragedy refutes al of those approaches. so it was eiter cover-up for the president's own ideology preventing him frm processing reality breton front of him, but here is where these e-mails also bring us to a w level because they show the passivity in the white house as the attack was underway. they were not taking steps. they did n go to all hands on deck red alert what are we going to do to protect our people. by the way, what are we going to do about the risk of attacks against the embassy intripoli and other embassies in the region? and i think that is an even worse problem for the administration than the fact that they were resorting to an explanation that had no relation to reality. tracy: right. we did not react fast enough. it could happen right here. it most recently did down at the federal reserve building here in manhattan. we heard in the foreign policy debate the other night both

sides. i think a lot of people still feel like we don't have solid plans from either of them. >> governor romney had to overcome the hurdle that ever challenger to an incumbent president has. ronald reagan added in 1980. that is to show that against an incumbe president who has been there for three and a halfyars the challenger has what it takes to sit behind the big desk at the white house and make some hard decisions. so i think that wa the strategy, to show that he had, gravitas, resolved, he had a grof the issues, not to get into the nitty gritty of current disputes, but to show the voting publicic that he has the capaciy to handle challenges and threats. we don't even know about it at this time becausehey have not occurred yet. there is something in the future, and the citizens have to believe that they can put his trust and delegate this enormous

responsibility to a challenger who they have not seen him perform the functions f commander in chief, so i think that is what the governor had to do, and i think in my completely unbiased opinion, that is exactly what he did. tracy: i guess it is very hard to stay in front of ll this. ambassador bolton, thank you. >> thank you, tracy. tracy:ll right. if you are fired up about this or any issue on the program, drop us an e-mail. gerriwillis.com. ♪ >> coming up on "the wils report", will the oama bank bankrupt electric car battery bonuses to op execs. we will cover the shocking new details. and only 13 days left until election day. >> i have a plan that will actually create jobs. >> can you afford four more years with 23 million americans looking for a good job? >> which canada will be abe to sway undecided voters? our political panel bales it out later. also, wall street hitting that
